Hello,
Does anyone know if the latest FIPS-capable OpenSSL can be used safely
by multi-threaded applications?
I have read the various FIPS-related docs for OpenSSL and did not see
any mention of thread support.
Per http://www.openssl.org/docs/crypto/threads.html, I understand that
the "regular" OpenSSL provides multi-threading support if two specific
callback functions are implemented. Does this technique also apply to
the FIPS-capable OpenSSL? That is, would the implementation of these
callbacks guarantee multi-threading support in a FIPS-capable OpenSSL?
I am planning to use only the following algorithms: SHA-256, HMAC-
SHA256, AES-256 for encrypt/decrypt and AES Key wrap (on Linux,
Windows and Mac OS X 10.3+).
Thanks,
Bill
